報(bào)告內(nèi)容摘要：
In this lecture, we will discuss the foundations of literary multilingualism and translation. The function of multilingual literature is not primarily pragmatic, but rather aesthetic. The discussion of questions of multilingualism thus has a distinct ethical dimension: one is born into a family, economic and social circumstances that determine the linguistic development and future of the individual and of the community. The speaker’s linguistic habitus includes inseparable technical and social competences that determine the ability to speak and the ability to articulate oneself in a particular, socially required or appropriate way. In this context, we will consider questions of translatability, fidelity, the hierarchical division between original texts and their translations, and the biased of translation.
